00:00The United States and Israel's unilateral action in Iran doesn't have backing from the United Nations Charter.
00:07Spain's Foreign Minister, José Manuel Alvarez, has told Euronews flagship programme Europe Today.
00:12He also condemned Iran's retaliatory strikes against several other nations in the Middle East.
00:18We see today that the war is spreading in the whole region in the Middle East.
00:22There are unjustified attacks from Iran to many countries in the Middle East that we clearly condemn.
00:30Today we are seeing the extension of the war to Lebanon and the instability in the region is something that
00:38really worries us.
00:39He added that as the conflict spills over into the wider region, Spain and the European Union must be a
00:46voice of reason,
00:47a voice that tries to put some balance in what's happening that speaks of de-escalation and going back to
00:53diplomacy and negotiation.
00:55Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez is the only EU leaders to have openly condemned Saturday's US-Israeli strikes on Iran,
01:02which have triggered a spiraling conflict in the region.
